Regional Comparison

Compared to projects like Aquamar in Torre del Mar (from €269,950), Lantana Residencial in Mijas (from €205,000), and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (from €269,000), this Detached Villa in El Chaparral, Málaga, is positioned in a higher price bracket, with an asking price of €996,000. This higher valuation can be attributed to the villa's specific attributes, such as its larger living area (267 m²), substantial plot size (533 m²), and its location near Málaga. The mentioned comparable projects appear to refer to new-build apartments or smaller homes in different coastal towns, often featuring lower entry prices. The El Chaparral villa, as an existing, spacious family home, offers a different type of product compared to the typical apartments often listed from lower price points. The emphasis here is on a standalone residence with more private space and amenities, such as a private pool and garage, justifying the higher price within the Costa del Sol property market.
